- 44 Years Helping People Heal: What Actually Creates Long-Term Health | Rogan Taylor | Episode 18
What actually creates long-term health?
In this episode of CORE Conversations, Robbie Harmon sits down with physical therapist Rogan Taylor, who has spent more than 44 years helping people recover from injury, chronic pain, surgery, and physical dysfunction.
Together they explore the patterns Rogan has observed after working with thousands of patients — from consistency and exercise to nutrition, longevity, mental health, connection, and whole-food plant-based living.
They discuss:
- Why consistency matters more than quick fixes
- The relationship between nutrition and chronic disease
- Why most people still aren’t getting enough nutrients
- The connection between healthspan and lifestyle habits
- Common myths around protein and plant-based diets
- Why loneliness and connection matter for health
- How CORE7 was designed to simplify better nutrition
This conversation is practical, thoughtful, and deeply human — focused on helping people fuel, use, and rest their bodies in ways that unlock their innate ability for physical and mental health.

1 hr 6 min - Are Supplements a Scam? Why Smart People Are Skeptical (And What They Are Missing) | Lon Henderson and Kim Stoddard | Episode 17
In this episode of Core Conversations, host Robbie Harmon is joined by Ampelis CEO Lon Henderson and content leader Kim Stoddard to unpack a thoughtful critique of their new whole-food supplement product, Core 7, written by a triple board-certified physician.
Rather than reacting defensively, the team uses the critique as a launch point for a deeper conversation about skepticism in the supplement industry, the difference between pharmaceuticals and food-based interventions, the role of anecdotal evidence, and how intellectually honest disagreement can strengthen innovation.
They acknowledge that the supplement industry has earned much of its skepticism due to overpromising, underdelivering, and prioritizing marketing over quality. Core 7, however, was not created as a profit-driven venture—but as a clinical solution after the team couldn’t find a product that met their standards for quality, dosing, breadth, and efficacy.
The episode explores:
- Why nutrition research often produces disagreement.
- Why “certainty” is the wrong standard for nutritional products.
- Why food-based interventions are both safer and more complex than pharmaceuticals.
- The importance of transparency, humility, and long-term validation.
- Why supplementation remains necessary even for people who “eat well.”
The conversation ultimately reframes the debate: Core 7 isn’t meant to replace food or act like a pharmaceutical—it’s designed to close nutritional gaps and deliver functional, whole-food-based support for sleep, mood, energy, immunity, and cognitive performance in a simplified, accessible way.
1 hr 31 min - From Near Death to Deep Healing: A New Way to Understand Energy | Chase Faldmo | Episode 16
In this episode of Core Conversations, host Robbie Harmon sits down with chiropractor and health educator Chase Faldmo for a deep, unconventional discussion on how the human body generates, stores, and loses “power.” Rather than focusing on motivation or psychology, the conversation explores physiological energy through the lens of frequency, nerves, fascia, mitochondria, and heart rate variability (HRV).
Chase shares his personal health journey—nearly losing his life as a teenager after medical complications—and how discovering principles of nutrition, detoxification, frequency, and nervous system regulation led to a full recovery. That experience shaped his life’s work and his belief that healing only happens when the body has sufficient power.
The episode unpacks:
- How muscles, fascia, nerves, and cells function as interconnected power systems
- Why low power is the root cause of chronic illness and slow healing
- How HRV can be used as a measurable indicator of total-body power
- Modern lifestyle factors that drain power (toxins, dental infections, scars, emotions, airway issues)
- Why teeth function like “circuit breakers” for organ systems
- How faith, intention, prayer, and coherence between heart and brain can measurably impact health
The conversation bridges modern bioenergetics, ancient healing principles, and spiritual insight—challenging conventional healthcare models and offering a new framework for understanding resilience, recovery, and vitality.
Key Themes & Takeaways
The Body Runs on Power
- Healing only occurs when the body has enough electrical and metabolic power
- Muscles generate power through movement; nerves distribute it
Everything Is Connected
- Fascia links muscles, organs, teeth, and even emotions
- Problems in one “room of the house” affect the entire system
HRV as a Health Barometer
- HRV reflects voltage, current, efficiency, and nervous system balance
- Higher HRV = greater resilience, adaptability, and healing capacity
Dental Health Is Systemic Health
- Root canals and dental infections can silently drain power from organs
- Teeth act like circuit breakers for major body systems
Modern Life Drains Power
- Toxins, unresolved emotions, scars, airway issues, and poor digestion are major contributors
- Chronic illness = chronic power deficit
Faith, Intention & Coherence Matter
- Prayer, intention, and coherence between heart and brain measurably influence HRV
- Spiritual alignment can enhance physiological resilience

1 hr 19 min - The Power of Relationships: Supercharge Your Health and Sense of Meaning | Lon Henderson | Episode 15
This episode of Core Conversations centers on the transformative power of relationships—how they shape physical and mental health, emotional resilience, family culture, values, and long-term meaning.
Host Robbie Harmon and guest Lon Henderson explore how real human connection is increasingly rare in a world that is physically unhealthy, emotionally fragile, and digitally distracted. They argue that strong relationships require intentional effort, shared values, service, sacrifice, and repeated habits that cultivate trust and unity.
Lon shares personal stories—from parenting traditions, mentoring children and in-laws, global humanitarian experiences, to helping wealthy families rediscover core values—that underscore how relationships are built through consistent action, not theory. They discuss research on social connection, the physiological science behind belonging, societal trends (declining marriage rates, shrinking families, loneliness), and the role of forgiveness in healing damaged relationships. Lon and Robbie also reflect on spirituality, purpose, and the intergenerational power of family bonds.
The episode concludes with an invitation: identify one relationship principle that resonates and begin applying it—“build one tread on the stair”—as the path to stronger families, better health, and deeper meaning.
Key Themes & Takeaways
Relationships as a Health Multiplier
- Healthy relationships improve physical, emotional, and mental health.
- Research shows a physiological response to giving, serving, and investing in others.
- Without connection, people become more fragile.
Values as the Foundation of Strong Relationships
- Shared, time-tested values create unity across cultures and religions.
- Losing universal values leads to polarization, loneliness, and relational breakdown.
- Families function best on a “multiplication model”—giving creates more, not less.
Intentionality & Traditions Shape Family Culture
- Strong relationships come from deliberate habits, not accidents.
- Lon’s “put the golf clubs back” story shows how one moment can catalyze lifelong traditions.
- Saturday rituals, family councils, value-defining meetings, and shared work create bonding.
Intergenerational Impact
- Relationships compound across generations; strong family ties hold everyone “in orbit.”
- Investing in children and grandchildren creates resilience that spans decades.
Giving Creates Growth (The Divine Paradox)
- When you serve, you grow—physically, socially, and spiritually.
- “I lift thee and thou lift’s me—and we both ascend together.”
Forgiveness & Repairing Broken Relationships
- Everyone has been hurt—or has hurt someone.
- Healing often starts with a small act: a call, a letter, a gesture of peace.
The Crisis of Meaning & AI
- AI and modern efficiency remove struggle and reflection, potentially eroding meaning.
- Strong relationships and spirituality anchor purpose in a rapidly changing world.

1 hr 17 min - What is the Core7 Ecosystem? Why does it matter? Lessons learned about helping people make change in their lives. | Kim Stoddard | Episode 14
In this episode of Core Conversations, host Robbie Harmon and guest Kim Stoddard discuss the upcoming launch of Core 7, a nutritional product designed to bridge the gap between physical and mental health through an integrated lifestyle ecosystem. They explore how Core 7 extends beyond a supplement—it’s part of a larger system aimed at helping individuals make sustainable behavior changes through mindfulness, nutrition, and community.
Kim shares personal stories from her family’s potato farm in Idaho, reflecting on gratitude, faith, and hard work as grounding elements that parallel health transformation. Together, they unpack the Core 7 Ecosystem, which includes group coaching, masterclasses, monthly drop-ins, and access to personalized nutrition planning. The discussion emphasizes that real, lasting health comes through small, consistent actions—“go small”—and through authentic community support that encourages growth over time.
Key Themes & Takeaways
Holistic Health Integration – True wellness combines physical, emotional, spiritual, and behavioral health.
Community-Based Change – People change best together, supported by live group coaching and accountability.
Microlearning for Real Impact – Learning in small, repeatable chunks leads to sustainable transformation.
Faith & Gratitude in Daily Life – Drawing strength and perspective from spirituality and gratitude fuels resilience.
Practical Tools for Change – Core 7’s ecosystem offers real-world resources like mindfulness classes and AI-based meal planning.
“Go Small” Philosophy – Growth happens through consistent small steps, not overnight transformations.
Authenticity & Intentionality – Lasting impact comes from genuine care, not commercial motives.

1 hr 24 min - From Our Home to Yours: Meditation and Mindfulness in Real Life | Jesika Harmon | Episode 12
In this heartfelt and insightful episode of Core Conversations, host Robbie Harmon sits down with his wife Jesika Harmon, a certified mindfulness instructor, to explore how mindfulness and meditation impact relationships, personal growth, and overall well-being. Jesika shares her journey into mindfulness, beginning with a 40-day meditation challenge before COVID, which blossomed into deep personal transformation and professional certification.
Together, they discuss how mindfulness practices—like self-compassion, awareness, breathwork, and gratitude—can bring balance, peace, and connection into daily life and relationships. Through relatable stories from their marriage, Jesika illustrates how mindfulness tools help manage emotions, reduce reactivity, and cultivate patience and empathy. The conversation blends vulnerability, humor, and wisdom, providing listeners with practical ways to bring stillness and presence into modern, hurried lives.
Key Themes & Takeaways
- Mindfulness as Presence – Mindfulness is the art of being aware of the present moment—what you feel, think, and experience—without judgment.
- Self-Compassion – True growth begins when you treat yourself with the same empathy and honesty you’d offer a friend. Move from critic to coach.
- Awareness Before Reaction – Awareness allows you to pause and notice emotions or thoughts before responding, transforming tension into understanding.
- The Power of Breath – Slow, intentional breathing can physiologically calm your body, helping shift from fight-or-flight to rest-and-digest.
- Gratitude and Mindset Shift – Gratitude isn’t just positive thinking—it rewires the brain, changes emotional state, and creates resilience.
- Rest Beyond Sleep – True rest includes emotional and mental stillness, not just physical recovery.
- Mindfulness in Relationships – Small, personal shifts in mindset can improve connection, communication, and emotional safety in marriage.
- Modern Hurry Culture – Our constant productivity mindset robs us of presence; mindfulness is a counterbalance to this chronic “hurry sickness.”

1 hr 48 min - Sleep Better, Live Better: The Science of Rest and Practical Tips on How to Do it Better | Mark Basil | Episode 11
This episode of Core Conversations features guest Mark Basil, an exercise physiologist and owner of Optimum Fitness, discussing the science of sleep and its profound impact on health. Together with host Robbie Harmon, they explore the stages of sleep, how it affects hormones, mood, immunity, metabolism, and mental health, and provide practical strategies for improving sleep hygiene.
The conversation emphasizes that sleep is not a luxury but a biological necessity—on par with food and water—for physical recovery, emotional resilience, and cognitive performance. Mark shares actionable advice, such as creating a routine, managing light exposure, nutrition choices, and exercise timing, to help listeners unlock their body’s innate health potential through better rest.
Key Themes & Takeaways
Sleep as Essential Health
- Lack of sleep increases risk for depression, anxiety, heart disease, and poor cognitive function
- Quality rest boosts immunity, mood, and willpower
The Science of Sleep Cycles
- Four stages (N1, N2, N3 deep sleep, and REM) serve distinct roles in healing, memory, and restoration
- Deep and REM sleep are especially crucial for learning, mood, and physical recovery
Hormones & Mental Health
- Sleep replenishes serotonin and dopamine more effectively than antidepressants
- Sleep deprivation independently drives anxiety and depression
Sleep Hygiene – The “Seven Big Rocks”
- Bed by 10:30 PM
- Consistent routine
- Cool, dark, quiet environment
- Daily exercise
- Avoid stimulants
- Avoid eating close to bedtime
- Limit bright lights/screens before sleep
Nutrition & Supplements
- Magnesium, potassium, calcium, pistachios, and herbal teas can support sleep
- Caution with melatonin—often misused and potentially harmful

1 hr 22 min - The Power of Movement: Activating Your Body’s Energy Systems | How Exercise Boosts Metabolism and Mental Well-Being | Tanna Fox | Episode 10
In this episode of Core Conversations, host Robbie Harmon sits down with nutritionist Tanna Fox to explore the power of movement as medicine. They discuss how daily exercise impacts physical health, mental clarity, and even aging. The conversation highlights practical strategies for starting small, building sustainable habits, and inspiring families and communities through example rather than pressure.
The episode emphasizes that movement doesn’t have to mean long gym sessions—simple actions like walking after dinner, sprinting occasionally, or strength training a few minutes a day can create profound improvements in metabolism, mental well-being, and resilience.
Key Themes & Takeaways
Movement Is Medicine
- Exercise benefits everything from wrinkles, gut health, glucose, and mental health to longevity
- Strength training is described as the “fountain of youth.”
Start Simple, Build Momentum
- Don’t get paralyzed by finding the perfect plan—just start moving
- Even 1–5 minutes can make a difference
.
Strength Training & Functional Fitness
- Lifting weights and muscle fatigue are key for growth and anti-aging
- Functional movements (groceries, sitting/standing, pull-ups) prepare us for real-life needs
Movement for the Mind
- Exercise releases BDNF, which sharpens brain function and reduces brain fog
- Movement builds stress resilience and balances cortisol
Family & Community Modeling
- Kids learn more from example than nagging
- Movement modeled by parents can ripple across generations
.
Everyday Habits That Matter
- Post-dinner walks help regulate glucose and prevent fat storage
- Managing energy (not just time) helps people fit exercise into daily life
